"I have a map," Niall said in a quiet voice. "Miss Gaia gave it to me." He looked back to Eros and said, "Its okay. I don't like the orphanage but I guess neither does Mr. Magnus." He looked at the werewolf to confirm. "I'm sorry about yar folks." Niall went pink. He shook his head, "no but I've heard they are good. Yes, I'll enjoy sharing a butterbeer." He thought this was what Eros meant "for Niall" When Eros gave him a nickname the kid turned even redder and was smiling though his eyes went to the ground.

Magnus laughed, "Ain't gonna be low key if I can't elp it Eros. And I know people." Magnus gave smile. Oh he had an idea alright--at least what to get Eros. Then he realised what Niall said, "Oh I got adopted a few years ago..." he said apologetically.

Drew hid a grin, though his eyes twinkled at hearing Magnus being referred to as Mister. It was good to see Niall opening up though. And maybe Eros wasn't as aloof as he'd thought at first. He seemed like a guy that Drew would like to get to know more.

"Now how can we have fun and a real celebration if it's low key?" he asked Eros. He glanced back at Magnus at his comment about knowing people and wondered if his friend knew what Drew was up to.

(post so we can see >.<)

[img align=left]http://i.imgur.com/8c1Q3Re.png[/img] Eros got distracted when Magnus said the celebration wasn't going to be lowkey. The Australian narrowed his eyes at werewolf and stared at him suspiciously when the Ravenclaw prefect said he knew people. He turned his attention at the other Slytherin. "Simple and lowkey can be fun," Eros shrugged, although he didn't really know. It's been a long time since he's celebrated his birthday and even when his dad was alive, it was just family. "Lowkey, guys. Nothing fancy, Mags," Eros reiterated, although he wasn't sure he was being heard.

"Anyway. Gonna go see if I can find Kavanagh," Eros sighed. "I'll catch up with you guys," he gave the group a lazy wave before heading off.

((ooc: it's 1:45A.M. I need to go to bed xD Night!))

((good night!))

Drew watched Eros head back inside and said to Magnus and Niall. "Guess we should go back too. We need to be there to hear any directions that are given." He started for the door as well.

((ooc: bedtime for me too. I should have gone hours ago, but yeah rp is addictive :D Night everyone! Talk to you all tomorrow!)

Magnus had a mischievous smile on his face. However, he had no idea what Drew was thinking of. The grin Magnus gave was nothing short of "up to something" however. He heard Eros and it probly wouldn't be huge but there would be gifts and cake. "I'll try to control meself." Magnus said with another grin. He waved to Eros and turned to the others. "Best 'ead back in. "

Niall wanted to follow Eros, but shyly regarded the others and turned to follow Magnus.
((I need to head to bed too. Night))

((OOC sorry for the delay...needed a nap after all that...will try to catch up..so previous answers first))

Outfit Not Found

(previous) Lottie looked at Joe and gave a smile. "Yes I suppose they are good reasons." She looked at Ellenor. "If you feel you want to help, you could always ask if you could be of assistance? Maybe you could offer insight others might not see" she shrugs. She wasnt sure exactly what to say, she understood wanting to help...but sometimes people didnt want it.

((Hope you sleep well! sorry for poofing! :D See you tomorrow))

Lottie watched as tried to sway the tall Slytherin known as Eros . She didnt mean to but she snorted into her coffee. Wasnt that the god of love? She somehow felt it was ironic...she looked back at the Eros sneakily. Maybe hes a womanizer?...mmm That didnt seem right..He just seemed...cheeky? She let it go after then. She then saw Drew go after the boy as well. I hope I didnt freak him out to much... ((She is unaware hes met Paddy)) She hoped her gesture wouldnt start something.

((Also sleep well to and @ Leafling19 :D have a good night guys! see you tomorrow))

She looked over at Joe () and saw he had taken to watching videos. She stood up stretching (her tail included). "Be back.." she said quietly and made her way to the restroom and then the snack table. She rubbed her eyes under her glances and yawned. She didnt want to fill up before the tour...however she hadnt been eating much lately either.

Joe looked up as Lottie stood up ad stretched. He watched her leave, and looked down at his coffee cup. It was empty.

'Maybe a restroom break is a good idea,'he thought. He got up and used the facilities, drinking deeply from his flask while he was in there, and came back out eating a breath mint. He wandered over and helped himself to yet another coffee, and happily sat back down with it.

Outfit Not Found Lottie looked up at Joe, her glasses had slide a bit showing her orange eyes. "Enjoying yourself?" it was a bit sarcastic, probably due to living on coffee and lack of sleep. She sighed. God, Ive become a snarky bitch... She looked a slightly apologetic and mumbled. "sorry.." She looked back at the table.

Joe looked up at Lottie, then sipped his coffee, making the slightest of smacky lips. "Yep," he said, amusement in his eyes. "That's a nice look for you, " he said quietly, and sipped his coffee again, this time normally.

She looked up at Joe. "what do you mean?" she didnt understand...she busied herself with making another coffee while waiting for an answer.

Joe glanced over at Lottie. "Your eyes, of course...they look good with the rest of you."

(OOC: Whoa you did a lot overnight! reads through everything to catch up. Just imagine Paddy's been there the whole time, just politely listening to conversation :P)

(( same same I went to bed at 3am and then 6 pages appeared when I woke up))

Rosie raised her head and noticed most of the occupants at her table had left. "Wha... what.. where.. uuggghhh.." she groaned. "I must've fallen asleep again." she muttered softly. She reached above her stretching her muscles and felt a small pop in her lower back. She got up and wandered over to the refreshments to look for something strong. "Coffee... Coffee milk and sugar.." she sang under her breath. Locating the supplies she made herself a large cup of something sweet and strong and turned back to look at the few people left at the tables. She figured she could pass some time by herself and sat back at her table. She hummed softly as she thought about everyone doodling little flowers along the edge of her map.

(( Full disclosure I meant to hang out last night but realized my foot was swollen laid down aaaannndd here I am today XD I will read back and catch up on what is happening but I will start replying so Gaia and the twins can get in on the action organically as the intro part continues.))

[img align=left]http://i.imgur.com/R53D23l.png[/img] Gaia had gone into the kitchen to help and realized she left Niall and the welcome table alone for too long. As she rushed to get back outside she found a full crowd of students. Old and new and she grinned. "Welcome everyone! I am happy you are joining us. Please continue to enjoy yourselves! I will be around and most likely make my way to your tables. Thank you for joining this fun adventure!" Gaia was smiling when she look around the room and saw Eros () had come. She adjusted her dress and fussed over her hair. [I]what is happening to her?[/i] she thought blushing and then gasped "oh no, I hope Niall is okay." More to herself than anyone. Also where are her friends? ( - I know I saw you but I am not caught up on where you are. I do know Marcello is around Hogsmeade XD if you are here already sorry! I think I missed scanning a few pages.)

[img align=left]http://i.imgur.com/8c1Q3Re.png[/img] Eros got back inside to the private event room of Las Palmas, he saw Gaia also making her way out of the kitchen. Upon seeing her join the students, his eyes widened a bit, his lips parting as he noticed how particularly pretty she looked today. She was always pretty, although he would never admit it, but today, she was even more so. His eyes fixed on her as she addresses the group, and he continued to stare even she was done speaking.

[img align=left]http://i.imgur.com/R53D23l.png[/img] Gaia spotted Eros and grinned. She took some time as to not seem eager to say hi. She left the table and grabbed a pumpkin juice. "Have you been here long?" Gaia grinned and offered Eros () the bottled drink.

[img align=left]http://i.imgur.com/8c1Q3Re.png[/img] Eros just kind of watch Gaia as she went to grab something to drink. When she started to come his way, he broke his gaze for a moment to pretend like he was just casually glancing around the room. However, he ended up looking back at her just as she reached him. He saw the pumpkin juice she offered him and grabbed. "Long enough to get in trouble," he smirked. He took a sip of the juice and made a face. It was a brief expression of disgust, but he quickly masked it and cleared his throat. He wasn't really fond of pumpkin. "You look, um...that dress is nice," he said.

Gaia laughed at the face he made. "Sorry!" She grabbed the bottle and settled it down. "We have other stuff. Is butterbeer better?" She grinned. "You in trouble? ... nah, you would never." She laughed "what happened?" ()

[img align=left]http://i.imgur.com/8c1Q3Re.png[/img] Eros shook his head as Gaia took the drink from him. "Sorry. Yeah, I never acquired the taste for pumpkins," and nodded when she suggested butterbeer. "It was nothing. Apparently, I'm intimidating to younger kids?" Eros smirked.
